<p>[QUOTE=&quot;imrich, post: 2313036, member: 22331&quot;]You may be correct with certain types of coins, but my general experience in collecting certified higher grade, scarce date pre-1933 Gold coins is that NGC has a greater listed price, but their product can be acquired at a lesser price than PCGS.</p><p><br /></p><p>My general experience is that consumers prefer to acquire the PCGS product at the NGC real value sales price, given all slab criteria listed equal.</p><p><br /></p><p>I believe that regardless of the TPG, there are great grading disparities (e.g. 2 grades) for higher grade scarce date coins, and buyers often purchase the slab rather than the coin. When &quot;upgrading&quot;, I&#039;ve often offered the same coin (based on slab data) in both NGC and PCGS enclosures, stating a preference for the NGC product, and virtually all have selected the PCGS product.</p><p><br /></p><p>A current real time example is that I have 2 associates wanting a PCGS MS63 graded 1907-D and 1911 $20 Double Eagle coin at C.D.N. &quot;Grey Sheet&quot; pricing. I suggested NGC certification, and both declined. </p><p><br /></p><p>JMHO[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
